Following a graveyard-shift emergency meeting that ended early Friday morning, the organization concluded all previous rulings regarding the disqualified, reinstated and disqualified-again 152-pound boxer from Winter Haven, Fla., were insufficient to resolve the quandary at the U.S. Olympic Boxing Trials.

Thus, USA Boxing decided to throw out all results from the 152-pound division and hold a do-over at a date and location to be determined.

"Because previous efforts by USA Boxing to resolve the issues in the 152- pound welterweight division were unsuccessful ... it was determined the division will be re-drawn and re-contested at an undetermined date and location," the organization said in a statement.

Berto, bronze medalist at the 2003 World Championships, was disqualified from his Tuesday bout against Juan McPherson for a flagrant foul; he threw his opponent to the canvas in an attempt to get out of a clinch.

A grievance was filed on Berto's behalf and he was reinstated into the tournament. On Wednesday, Berto won a 20-19 decision over Vanes Martirosyan of Glendale (Los Angeles County) in what was the best bout of the tournament. On Thursday, USA Boxing reversed itself and disqualified Berto again, saying it had acted hastily in letting him back in the tournament.

It also said due process had been denied McPherson, who sustained a head injury in the Tuesday fall and was not medically cleared to continue.
